2 Weeks and still going

Hi Everyone,

Sleepless in Benicia here..... We are currently on 2, 3 hour schedules and 1, 4 hour schedule with the boys. We are completely exhausted and have now come down with colds (Doctor said I have a low grade fever and thinks it is a virus plus allergies). We are looking at night help because it is killing our parents that watch them during the day, do the night shift also. I would say we need 2 additional set of hands. 1 for the day and 1 for the night. Anyway, we know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel (and it is not a train) with the boys sleeping through the night. I can't wait. Hopefully they will go through the night when they are <4 months old.

We had our first "submerged" bath last night, it was so fun. All of the boys loved it, they were so calm. Once they were cleaned, they got a massage from Nana and then they were put to bed. If I could figure out how to get video on this blog, I will share it with you.

Great news, I am only 10 pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight. I am so excited. I only have to loose 30 pounds now to be at my goal weight. It seems doable after this triplet journey.

Well that is it for now. Pretty exciting stuff. Can't wait for the day and night help to arrive. Things will be better then.

Nicole, Jeff, James, Matthew and Walker

Hang in there! You have a beautiful family. Crazy, sheer exhaustion will never exceed the blessing. Look forward to seeing you with Shelda when things settle down.

Take Care,
Irene
